Re: N F L 2010

I was watching the pre-game show on CBS with James Brown, Boomer Esiason, Shannon Sharpe, and Coach Bill Cowher (Dan Marino was missing). They did a little special on the Bengals talent Chris Henry, who died about 11 months ago from a car mishap. His mother donated his organs, and they showed all of the families that had benefitted from the donation. At the end of it, James Brown (the moderator) was so broken up and in tears that he could not continue. Boomer took the reigns while James got himself together. The other guys were totally quiet. I was fine until James Brown broke down...then my waterworks started. Boomer said that he has a child with cystic fibrosis who may be looking at a lung transplant in the future; he got a little shaky, but he held it together. Everybody was composed, after the break.

I was able to watch the story on cbssports.com. What a strong woman his mother is and what a beautiful gift for those individuals and their families.

It was going to happen sooner or later...Broncos fired their head coach Josh McDaniels.

I think McDaniels made a great coordinator in NE, but he was a terrible coach. He came in with a my way or the highway mentality and the players didn't respond. He drove out Cutler and Marshall (not terrible losses really), but it was the way he did it that bothered me. There was no compromise with this guy. He had too much power and too much control. That's an owner issue too, not just a coach issue.

I would love, love, love Jon Gruden, Jeff Fisher or Bill Cowher to coach Denver. I know, it's not going to happen. We'll probably get a no name coach and once again start the rebuidling process. I just hope they want to rebuild around Tim Tebow and a better defense.
